Shingles vaccine
Has anyone on methotrexate and infliximab had the
shingles
vaccine
? Do you have to get it every year ?

Immunocompromised people aged 50+ are now eligible for the shingles vaccine
Immunocompromised people aged 50 and over are now eligible for the
shingles
vaccine
. The
vaccine
reduces your chances of getting
shingles
and reduces the risk of complications if you still develop it.

Hi folks, just been sent a link for the
Shingles
Vaccine
, is this something anyone else has had. I wasn't aware that when taking Methotrexate this was possible. Unfortunately I can never get through to my surgery to ask the question. Thank you

no you can't have the
shingles
as it is a live
vaccine
. You don't get offered the
shingles
vaccine
until you are 70

Shingles Vaccine
I’m trying to work out whether at age 61 with a compromised immune system, I will qualify for the new shingrix (
shingles
non-live)
vaccine
on the NHS? Does anyone know?

Shingles Vaccine
Just looking at the new advertising campaign for the
shingles
vaccine
although those who are 70-79 are entitled to it looks like those of us over 50 who are severely immune suppressed can have the 2 x dose of (non live) Shingrix from September 1st. Is this right? Please shoot me out the sky if not.

Just seen the BBC news health website. Shingles vaccines being offered to over 65’s ( was 70) and, even better, to vulnerable immune suppressed people over 55 from September 2023.

Shingles vaccination and PCa progression?
Hi everyone, I am planning to get
Shingles
vaccine
, but afraid from the consequences. Gleason score 9 (4+5) Radical Prostatectomy 2017 > BCR 2019 SRT 8 weeks + Firmagon 6 injections (over 6 months). G 9 recurrence is inevitable (as we all know) so I am scared to take the
Shingles
vaccine
.

Atrial Fibrillation and Shingles vaccine
Hi everyone. I am new to this forum, my history being a F73 and have had very symptomatic PAF since 2015 and was put on Sotalol, Pradaxa and amlodipine for BP. In 2018 I had a cryoablation and got off the Sotalol which was replaced by 2.5mg of Bisoprolol to help with BP. I have not had AF since which

Shingles Vaccine, MS & DMT's
Hi All, How many of you have had the
Shingles
Vaccine
? My PCP encouraged me to get it (the newer, double dose vaccine) because he told me that I was at greater risk than the general population to get Shingles.

Update on shingles vaccine
I said I would let you know how I went on with the
shingles
vaccine
. I had the vaccine two weeks ago tomorrow. I had a lovely nurse who was very friendly so I felt I could chat to her. I wanted to confirm that I was having the non live vaccine and she said yes, I'll go and get it out of the fridge.

Shingles Vaccine
I am 73 and have been invited for a shingles vaccination. I have PMR and Hashimotos thyroiditis and have had severe reactions to previous Covid jabs such that my consultant advised me not to have any further boosters. Does anyone have any advice or experience to share regarding the Shingles jab? I know

I am going for a shingles vaccination on 29th June. I know there has been information about it on here before but I can't find it. I know I need the Shingrix vaccine and believe that you need a 2nd one 2 months later. I would like to hear about your experiences of Shingrix. . Of course, I have googled
